IMO you should remove it. For 2 reasons I might suggest. 1) It promotes poor gas exchange at the surface lowering your PH. No top and good surface aggitation will cause your PH to be at a heathy reading. 2) They trap heat from your lighting causing high temps. Esp. with that MH lighing. My opinion is to ditch the cover.
